Yoko Hisatomi Lane

Director & Founder of Sozo Hair Design

Sozo is her baby, hairstyling is her life and creativity is what flows in her veins. Sozo’s top director Yoko is a Japanese hair artist with a rare and genuine sense of fashion. Having graduated from one of Tokyo’s best hairdressing schools, a city famous for its cutting-edge style, she decided to broaden her creative horizon and to master her craft in trend-setting salons in Sydney and Hong-Kong. After several years at Toni and Guy where her skills gained her exposure in magazines and fashion shows, Yoko opened her own salon Sozo Hair Design in January 2013. If high quality fashion from one of the top Japanese stylists in town is what you are looking for, Yoko is the director you will come back to.

Doan Giang Fayet

Managing Director

I chose to come to Hong Kong to deliver my unique Parisian style and technique to the Hong Kong beauty industry. I have more than seven years’ experience in famous, luxury salons in Paris, and have honed my technique for Asian style through a one year stint in Beijing and two years at Emmanuel F in Hong Kong. I studied hair dressing for four years in Paris and received accreditation from two renowned French hair dressing schools. My experience, motivation and language skills (English, French, Mandarin and Vietnamese) give me confidence to satisfy my clients and deliver the latest styles in Hong Kong. I am very excited to share my experience and passion with SOZO.
